Hillary Clinton said FBI Director James Comey's decision to announce the emergence of new evidence potentially related to its probe of her email practices was "deeply troubling" and "unprecedented" so close to Election Day.

Speaking Saturday afternoon at a boisterous campaign rally in Daytona Beach, Fla., Clinton said “Donald Trump is already making up lies about this.”

“He is doing his best to confuse, mislead, and discourage the American people,” Clinton told a throng of her supporters numbering more than 500 at John H. Dickerson Community Center, part of a get-out-the vote operation.

Earlier on Saturday, Clinton’s top two campaign staffers, John Podesta and Robby Mook, ripped into Comey, accusing him of releasing a letter on Friday to Congress that was “long on innuendo and short on facts” about his investigation into new Clinton-related emails.

“No one can separate what is true from what is not because Comey has not been forthcoming with the facts,” said Podesta, who accused Comey of providing “selective information” that Republicans were using for political advantage.

Citing reports that the emails could be duplicates and may not have actually been from Clinton herself, Podesta said, “There’s no evidence of wrongdoing, no charge of wrongdoing, no indication that this is even about Hillary.”

At the Florida rally, Clinton kept up the attack on the FBI and Comey, telling the partisan crowd that she found it “pretty strange to put something like that out with such little information right before an election.”

“In fact, in fact, it’s not just strange — it’s unprecedented,” she said. “And it is deeply troubling because voters deserve get to full and complete facts.”

She said she had called on Comey to “explain everything right away, put it all out on the table.”

Clinton later trashed Trump and his “dark and divisive vision about America,” warning that the billionaire businessman’s “scorched earth campaign" was to get voters to stay home and not go to the polls.

“You know how we stop him? By showing up with the biggest turnout of voters in American history,” said Clinton.

“We need more of everybody to vote — more women, more young people, more people of color, more African Americans, more Latinos, everybody.”

As of Saturday morning, more than 3.2 million Floridians had early voted by mail or in-person, according to the latest numbers published by state elections officials. Republican voters were leading Democratic voters by more than 23,000 votes. More than 540,000 no party affiliation voters had cast ballots.

In Daytona Beach, the first of two stops for Clinton on Saturday, she praised Democratic Senate candidate Patrick Murphy, calling him a “problem-solver, not a problem-maker."

Polls show Murphy has closed the gap with his opponent Sen. Marco Rubio.

In urging Floridians to vote, Clinton rattled off a host of issues that she said were at stake in this election. Among them: making college affordable, bringing the cost of prescription drugs down, protecting and defending Social Security and Medicare from privatization and Wall Street schemes. Other issues included gay rights, climate change and equal pay for women.

“In the end, we know that American dream itself is at stake,” she said.

Like President Barack Obama, who spoke Friday in Orlando, Clinton pressed people to take advantage of early voting by pointing out the nearest early voting polling location, about a mile away at the Volusia County Library Center.

Before the appearance at the Dickerson Center, Clinton made a quick stop at the Bethune-Cookman University homecoming football game.

“I just want to urge all of the students here, and all of the alumni here to get out and vote,” she said. “(The election) is about the future of education."

"It’s about the future of B-CU. It’s about the future of HBCUs,” she said in referring to the acronym for historically black colleges and universities.

She told the majority black crowd she would do her best to carry on the work of President Obama, to loud cheers. A dee-jay alongside Clinton led the crowd in a cheer: “Hail, Hillary! Hail, Hillary! Hail Donald Trump … hell no!”

Clinton watched the Bethune-Cookman Marching Wildcats perform the national anthem, standing with her hand over her heart near University President Edison Jackson and other university dignitaries, before departing before kickoff.
